Eligible projects and programs must serve communities in the fund’s eight-county service area, which includes: Belmont, Coshocton, Guernsey, Harrison, Monroe, Muskingum, Noble and Tuscarawas counties.

Funding requests should be between $500 and $5,000. A total of up to $25,000 is available to award in this application round. Additional information and the application are available at www.AppalachianOhio.org/Southeast-Ohio-Health-and-Wellness. Applications must be submitted online by Friday, July 31.
